Large Energy Users Depend on Always-On Quality Power
Large industrial and commercial customers are significant energy consumers who increasingly rely on dependable, high quality power to run their digital operations. As the critical electric industry embarks on historic change, these users have two compelling concerns: that the price of power will increase dramatically as demand charges rise, as renewables are added and as carbon charges begin to accrue; and that changes to the grid will cause disruptions.
Xtreme Power Buffers Large Users from Grid Disruptions
An Xtreme Power system positioned between the electric utility and the large power user's facility acts as a UPS and power quality device, and provides load leveling capability to reduce peak demand charges. The XP system measures power levels at the micro-second level and automatically makes the necessary adjustments to ensure the large power user both energy availability and quality.
Xtreme Power Transforms a Large Power User's Options
The Xtreme Power system located at the point of consumption gives the large power user greater flexibility and assurance. The large power user with Xtreme Power management and storage will be able to store cheap power overnight during periods when electricity is priced low and then release stored power during peak periods to avoid high demand charges. Power management and storage produces the VARs and voltage regulation capacity needed to adjust power quality on the distribution grid, providing the large energy user a new potential source of income.
Advantages of Xtreme Power Management and Storage
- Increased self-sufficiency, greater flexibility and intelligent power consumption
- Efficiency gains through the ability to take and give power when needed
- Reduced need to actively manage and react to problems on the grid
